Eh. If you're viewing in HD on YouTube it's still losing some video quality, it just looks better then it normally does. If you've downloaded a video or whatever, you probably didn't get a HD version.

A full HD (1080p) movie will be well over 2GB, you have most likely got a 720p version of the video which has to be up-scaled to match your monitors resolution.

Full HD movie is probabaly around the 6-8gb mark to be honest Vox, Youtube HD is not full HD [1080p] just a higher res
